We found our guide very easily, and he accompanied us to the entrance of the museum, with no waiting despite the impressive crowds that day. Excellent service!

We toured all the major areas and some of the gardens including the Sistine Chapel in about 3.5 hours. The flow through the Vatican was well thought out, some areas were more congested than others, but nothing unexpected or uncomfortable for such a popular destination.

The Museums are absolutely beautiful and are so vast. The check in process was fine and thankfully we got a skip the line ticket. Lots of different things to see and you could probably spend hours there.

We had skip the line tickets so it was only 20 min wait. We saw the museum, had lunch in the garden and visited the Sistine Chapel.
Opt for this combo ticket that comprises a guided tour of the Catacombs of St. Callixtus, a visit to the St. John Lateran Basilica with an audio guide, and an escorted entrance to the Vatican Museums & Sistine Chapel for a fraction of its total cost.
Guided Tour of Catacombs of St. Callixtus
As the largest burial site in the Roman Catacombs, the Catacombs of St. Callixtus located on the Appian Way is full of mystery, intrigue, and closely-guarded secrets. During this 45-minute tour, your guide will give you a comprehensive look into the site’s history beginning in the 2nd century. Use their expertise and fluency in 5 different languages to gain valuable insight into the sometimes-taboo religious practices of Early Christians and see what Early Christian art looked like. Follow your guide closely as they navigate the labyrinth of tunnels to show you different parts of the site. They will lead you to the Crypt of St. Cecilia and the Crypt of the Popes, two of the most notable sites here.
St. John Lateran Ticket with Audio Guide
This self-guided tour will lead you to the Basilica of Saint John Lateran, its Cloister, Baptistery, the Holy Stairs (Scala Santa), and the Sancta Sanctorum Chapel. Go on a captivating journey to explore these sacred sites with only an audio guide to keep you company. You can listen to the audio guide in your preferred language from English, French, Spanish, German, and Italian languages.
Start this memorable tour from the St. John Lateran Basilica. As you make your way to the entrance, you will be greeted by an exquisite 7-meter-tall statue of Jesus surrounded by saints. Follow up your visit by heading to the famed Cloister which, measuring 36 meters on each side, is the widest in the city. The next stop is the Baptistery, whose interiors feature an impressive two-tier colonnade and iconic dome. Later, proceed towards the Scala Sancta or ‘Holy Stairs’. It is a set of 28 marble steps that legend says are the exact same steps Jesus climbed on his way to meet Pontius Pilate on the day of his crucifixion.
